Sung Yuri used to lip sync during her Fin.K.L days?
Sung Yuri of the ex-girl group Fin.K.L told Kang Ho Dong on Golden Fishery today that she used to lip sync while promoting with Fin.K.L.
Yuri was discovered on the street so she was merely chosen on her looks. After telling Kang Ho Dong she sang an S.E.S. song for the actual audition, he asked her to sing it again. The singer-turned-actress then said, “Don’t you know? I used to lip sync!”
While walking, someone told her that he wanted her to be in the “next S.E.S.,” and at first this made Sung Yuri and her friends suspicious but after finding out that Sechskies was in the same company, she went to see Sechskies.
On this episode, Yuri talked about her fear of fangirls and her hurt feelings about her criticized acting skills. When she would go on stage with her Fin.K.L members at an event where other boy bands were there, all the fan girls of those boy groups would turn their back on Fin.K.L while they performed.
One time, Sung Yuri was in the bathroom and she ran into fan girls. The fan girls called Sung Yuri such horrible names she couldn’t even defend herself. She was afraid of getting attacked so she just left. As a young girl, things like that hurt her and stayed with her.
As she talked about being criticized on her acting, Yuri shed some tears. She said, “I could deal with people telling me I was a bad actor. I couldn’t deal with people telling me I didn’t try hard.”
Because of the success she has now, I thought she always was treated as a princess. Sung Yuri definitely had it the hard way.
This episode featuring Sung Yuri today had a viewer rate of 16.5% which is higher than last week’s, 15.9%
hahaha i love her!
i wish allkpop had more articles on her… :T
i like her so much..
LOL you guys -_-. BIG FRIGGIN DEAL. It’s not like we didn’t know. She was the worst singer of the bunch. But I really couldn’t give a flyin shit that she or anyone else lip synced. That sentiment rings true to this day and it’s evident it’s not just me who thinks that (from all the support y’all give your very best lip syncers). A lot of idols lip sync and it ain’t nothing new. Bless her cute near ahjumma heart though for being able to laugh at herself. What a good sport. ::::
HOWEVER, as a singer you should probably actually sing at some point. Because you can’t fake dancing (can’t think of a catchy phrase for that). You can be bad at it though. Fin.K.L. was never known for dancing either so yeah… she acknowledges and embraces that she was the cute face. Honestly, idol stars may as well be dancing monkeys. Y’all can’t deny it. There maybe be an idol star out there who can’t sing worth shit and we’d never know it. But I never considered idol stars “artists” until they cross over into writing/producing/composing (No. “Acting” doesn’t NECESSARILY count). The term “idol star” was coined for a reason… they sure as hell aren’t “idol artists” -___-
she’s my fave in Fin.k.l before. Jin too! i like her acting…. she really improved a lot.XD
fangirls are so crazy!!!!!
eh, not surprised at all, she can’t sing and that’s a fact. don’t know about her acting as of now, but she couldn’t act for shiet
lipsyncing was done back then, and it’s still done now. as much as i don’t like it, people do want their idols and favorites to have perfect performances, and sometimes lipsyncing is a part of that. she definitely didn’t lip sync all the time, i’ve seen videos of her singing live, and she wasn’t horrible, just not as good as ock ju hyun haha ^^ and she’s not the best actress but she has potential and you know she works hard- how else could she be in so many dramas? people bash her but they watch her dramas. words may hurt but in the end, sung yuri wins all :)
it’s always difficult for a girl groups in asia…fangirls can be VERY scary…no offense…
she is HOT!!!
those people who called her those names need to realize now that she is more successful then they will ever be!! ha!
lol. at least she admitted she used ot lip sying. nad poor her. some fans are just too harsh. they just dont know how hard it is to try and be an artisits

Nah Spike, I think it was worse back in the day. Girl groups in general today sing better than the ones in the past.
loooool antis/overly crazy fangirls who don’t open minds and think about things :[ .
You’re using “fan girls” wrong… why would fans (people who idolize Yuri) criticize her?
But yeah, ANTIS can be quite vicious. I’m not surprised that she used to lip sync, though. Her acting > singing, definitely.
@8, what do you mean back then? It’s even worse today.
ya ppl used to lipsync a lot…not rly anymore though. but that means more work for our fave artists as well
everybody lipsynced back then. some still do nowadays. wonder why girls are such bitches to each other.
awwww… poor her
she is one amazing actress and singer no one can complain :)
Go Sung Yuri!!
crazy ass fan girls
Girl Groups had it hard back then :[ I’m glad Yuri stayed strong! ‘Cause she’s still my favorite from Fin.KL and she’s also my favorite actress!
D: Yuri is too pretty. She is great. x]
obviously you can tell, the only one probaly that wasnt lip syncing was Juhyun.

@1- i agree. ^^
